Announcement of First Interim Dividend

Momentum Multi-Asset Value Trust plc, which seeks to apply a value lens to identify the most compelling investment opportunities across a highly diversified range of asset classes, has today declared a first interim dividend in respect of the year ending 30 April 2023 of 1.80p per share, which will be payable on 23 September 2022 to shareholders on the register on 2 September 2022, with an ex-dividend date of 1 September 2022.

It is the Board's intention, barring unforeseen circumstances, to at least maintain the quarterly dividend rate of 1.80p per share for the year ending 30 April 2023. Given the outlook for inflation, it is very likely the fourth interim dividend will be higher than 1.80p per share consistent with the Board's intention to increase dividends by at least inflation over the longer run.
